What I want to do is make a program that can dial people's phones using a modem in QBASIC. I basically want to make a program sort of like what the guy had in the 1983 film WarGames. I am a beginner at QBASIC but I am confident I can do this program, with a bit of help. I read the QBASIC help files on opening com ports and this is what I came up with.
OPEN "COM1: [300] [,[E] [,[7] [,1]]]] BIN" [FOR OUTPUT] AS [#]255% [LEN=128%]
What I want to know is: Is there any code to make QBASIC make a modem call a specific number? Also, what com port does a modem generally use?
